In his restraint bag! I find it impossibly cute. Frankie has the most expression-ful, comical and darling face I have come across. He wears his heart on his sleeve and lets his personality shine.

Back on topic, I finally bought a pair of buccal pad separators and so had everybody all wrapped up and on their backs so I could have a play with the separators. Chewed up hay is not a nice looking thing, and three of the eight gave me a delightful view of that in the back of their mouths.

I'm getting confident with the actual cheek pad dilators part of it before putting the strong, hold-yer-mouth-open part in. I need to know I have put the dilators in properly before I get tied up with the rest of it! I'll get there. Got to, as I'm hoping to do a dentistry workshop in 2009 so I can learn to sort Tuppy's back teeth myself instead.

Dexter is not a fan at all of being wrapped up in the restraint bag. He kept his head down and wouldn't look up. He knows what happens when he looks up!

Heee heee I love that pic! his face is so cute!

Could I ask where you got the resraint bag from? they are also ideal for them having xrays, saves them having a whiff of gas.
 
Sweet little boy!

Yes, very useful for x-rays (although Riff was like statue and didn't need any gas. Proud mummy here).
 
that restraint bag is a brill idea for guineas who won't sit still for treatment. Franklyn is funny :))
